cedar hacker cedar hacker trapper Registered: 12/23/06 Posts: 102 Loc: Texas Hill Country	Cinnamon sticks is all I am going to put on here. If I told you some of the weird stuff I have tried, and still do at times, you would accuse me of running around with little green men from Roswell. By the way, I carry the sticks and flat washers covered with tin foil in my box at all times. _________________________ If everything is coming your way, you are in the wrong lane !

Wcrose19 Wcrose19 trapper Registered: 06/23/07 Posts: 1282 Loc: galesburg illinois	cedar if you want you can pm me those strange baits... rather than carry tinfoil i was thinking about haveing a few of my trap pans chromed, one of my first sets to produce a coon was with a shiny piece of tin wrapped around the pan in the shallow end of my pond trapper merritt that set isnt real legal here, but i put it on the underside of shagbark trees with moderate success, accidentally catch a few squirrels though

ZekeMan ZekeMan trapper Registered: 04/19/07 Posts: 652 Loc: NW Pennsylvania	Equal parts(16oz.) of honey and molasses. If you want to make this into a paste type bait, add an equal part of lard.You can add a small jar of petroleum jelly(vasaline) for extra water proofing. These ingredients should be heated to get a good mixture. I also like to add an equal part of fish oil, an ounce of shellfish oil, and 1 oz of muskrat gland lure to the mixture. Dynamite on coon!! _________________________

Smokey Smokey trapper Registered: 08/10/07 Posts: 52 Loc: East Tennessee	If you want a sweet bait for the coons, and will even take beaver. Use the Anise,spearmint, peppermint, and orange extracts that the others have spoken about, and mix it with Molasses. It will make a nice smear when it is cold, and the anise mixture will really put off an odor. I also use mackeral,sardines, and the blue cheese.

Wcrose19 Wcrose19 trapper Registered: 06/23/07 Posts: 1282 Loc: galesburg illinois	the pepto made me laugh dugout, but i actually was out of anise oil while i was blending up some shad earlier this year, anyway i was at home sick and found an old bottle of nyquil, smells like black licorice, ie anise, so i added the 6 or 8 year old bottle to the mix, if notthing else itll keep the coons asleep till i get there lol

Livetrap Livetrap trapper Registered: 06/27/07 Posts: 739 Loc: California	So what i am gathering is an animal will eat anything that's edible? Ok. For all you guys cathing cats on fish, are you using them say near a creek or pond or are you away from the water like up on a ridge with no water around? Also, you guys using runny paste type baits, how do you present them at the set? _________________________ The only thing I like about trapping in California is the lack of other trappers.

highview highview trapper Registered: 12/27/06 Posts: 220 Loc: N.E Wisconsin	For sweet baits i use frozen grape juice concentrate mixed with peanut butter or molasses or i just soak marshmallows in it. Grape jelly by itself works great too. Theres also a deer attractant called "Buck Jam" that they seem to like. I never used it trapping but i always see coon tracks around the pile when i use it for bowhunting. _________________________ 2007 18 coon 5 grinners 1 porky 2 red squirrel 1 fisher 2 mink 2 rabbit
